Just to be clear, Pitt is not winning this game. This is a typical ND game against a team that has a chance to upset them in South Bend. All Pitt did was give ND another chance to run up more yards. Then the Panthers will lose in OT. It's science.

I think it will turn out exactly the opposite--if they win out, at the end of the year ND won't be #2 in any legitimate computer ranking not bound by the BCS rules but they'll be #2 in the human polls. They're already behind Oregon and K-State at Massey, even before this.

On the bright side, Iowa is going to have 30 seconds to drive the length of the field to beat Indiana. Who wouldn't love to see a 5-7 Indiana team in the B1G championship game? Especially if we get to play them.
